alumni programs serve the more than 32,000 graduates of the UT Health Science
Center. The Office of Alumni Affairs coordinates alumni programs for the
individual colleges, sponsoring alumni weekends, class reunions, and alumni
gatherings at local, state and national professional meetings. The office also
coordinates meetings of alumni volunteer boards which serve as advisers to the

Office maintains current address records for all UT Health Science Center
alumni. Each year, the UT National Alumni Association, through the campus alumni
office, supports a number of scholarships, an alumni public service award,
alumni distinguished service professorship awards, and outstanding teacher
awards. A student from each campus serves as a representative to the National
Alumni Association's Board of Governors.
Continuing Education Student
It is well established that lifelong study is a fundamental responsibility of
all health professionals. Because of the rapid rate of technological change
resulting from research, innovation in the methods of health care delivery, and
new clinical procedures and materials, the need to remain current in the health
professions is acute. The colleges at the UT Health Science Center respond to
these needs by presenting a full range of courses yearly for practicing health
professionals. Students at the Health Science Center may also attend these
courses as their time permits. It is expected that all students, as they embark
upon a career of service, will realize an obligation to continue their
education, with that obligation becoming increasingly important the longer they
practice.
